im still not sure which photographer to use.. we havent met with anyone yet but i just wanted to hear your opinions on the three that i am thinking about...
thomas paul north island golden moments
i know how well golden moments picture and people are bc my sister used them for her wedding i loved them but they might be a little out of our price range esp if we use them for video too.

Re: photographer help
I just got my engagement pics back from TP. They are great! Plus he puts together two cute brag books with the best pictures. Everyone is raving about the presentation and the pictures. If he does this good work for epics, then I'm sure the wedding pics are gonna be awesome. He just called me today to tell me if i have any questions to call him this week because he will be closing the office for two weeks during the holidays. Call soon! Awesome customer service!!

I vote for Thomas Paul!! His prices seem very reasonable, he does great work and his customer service is amazing!!!
Golden moments was on my list to look at but i never got to see them bc i met TP and booked him right away.

Re: photographer help
I'm booked with TP and love his work. I've gotten a lot of compliments on my e-pics.
ETA: I'm actually booked with Brian from TP and not Tom himself. Tom was booked for my date (which we were originally bummed about) but I have to say I really love Brian's work!

I think he's VERY reasonable and will customize his packages for you. He also does video but I can't really speak on that because we decided to book another vendor for video.

I thought the price was good for what you get. Having 2 photographers can get pricey. He does have someone that does video, I believe it is an extra 1500. It was a few months ago that we booked so I don't remember for sure.

Re: photographer help
Look into Jayd Gardina!! She's shot at OFC before, that was really important for me to choose a photog that has shot there..
It could be hard for photographers because it's dark with the reflections from the glass windows on the sides and the cathedral ceilings...

Re: photographer help
TP was the first and only photographer I looked at. I booked him on the spot and he's been AMAZING. Originally we were having 50-60 people so I wasn't needing a second shooter but just added that and video. Video was an impulsive decision because my mom has late stage cancer. When he called me last week he even offered to take pics of my mom any time between now and the wedding if she isn't doing well and said he'd make sure the video person could also. That gesture alone solidified my decision. I'm actively involved in the photography world (hobbyist) and I found his prices to be very reasonable esp since he gives you full rights to the images digitally.

Re: photographer help
Thank you! You have no idea how great it made me feel. All my vendors have been great when I told them and have all offered to be flexible with dates if we needed to move things up. Business is business but customer service is EVERYTHING
